Abstract: An archery sight with a plurality of sight pins and a perimeter guard essentially surrounding the pins. The sight can be structured such that a first sight pin is disposed at a fixed position, relative to the guard, at a plurality of sight-in distance configurations for the first sight pin. In that case, the position of at least a second sight pin is changed, relative to the guard, as a sight-in distance configuration is changed for the first sight pin. Sights may provide visual cant and/or yaw feedback for an archer. Some guards may be partially or virtually enclosed to resist damage to sight pins or other internal mechanisms, and may provide visual magnification.

Abstract: A coupling system including a mounting plate for anchoring to a substrate and a pair of clasp elements for anchoring to an object to be coupled to the mounting plate. The mounting plate carries a longitudinal slot disposed at its distal end and a transverse slot disposed at its proximal end. Each clasp element is structured to define a groove shaped, dimensioned, and disposable to effect a press-fit registration with a respective slot. One clasp element is structured to form a press-fit installation into the transverse slot when the other resilient element is installed in press-fit registration in the longitudinal slot. Sometimes, the mounting system may include a deflection-limiting structure operable to resist wobble of a coupled object with respect to the substrate.

Abstract: An archery bow sight that includes a plurality of sight pins projecting from respective pin holders mounted within guide tracks for elevation adjustment. The sight includes a transport element manually driven by a drive element, both of which are positioned outside the guide tracks. The sight also includes a manipulator element, operable in association with the transport element for selectively engaging respective pin holders, whereby to effect selective individual elevation adjustments of sight pins. Generally, at least one pin holder is releasably secured within a first guide track, at least one pin holder is releasably secured within a second guide track and the manipulator element can selectively couple the transport element to either such pin holder. Sometimes, a yardage indicator mechanism is provided to permit returning a moved sight pin to a known sighted-in position for a given target yardage.

Abstract: A rigging structure for a compound archery bow includes first and second pulley assemblies, pivotally mounted on axles at tips of corresponding first and second limbs of a compound bow and interconnected by cables. Each pulley assembly includes a dynamic synchronizing component, and the rigging preferably also includes structure adapted to avoid the usual leaning moment imposed upon the pulley assemblies by the cables of conventional riggings.

Abstract: The axles of the eccentric pulley assemblies of a compound bow are journal mounted in pillow blocks carried by the limbs of the bow.

Abstract: A vibration dampening device for use on compound archery bows. A device may be associated with one or more bow limb, with each device disposing a vibration damping bumper in position to shorten the vibrating length of the bow string at brace, compared to the vibrating length of a bow string of a comparable bow lacking the device(s). Certain embodiments couple bowstring vibration at brace with one or more cable. Preferred embodiments include a limb anchor adapted to distribute string-induced loading onto a bow limb at both sides of a string cam.

Abstract: Rigging for a compound archery bow including first and second pulley assemblies disposed at ends of opposite first and second bow limbs. Each pulley assembly includes an integral pivot axle, mounted to rotate about an axis at the tip of a limb on which it is mounted. Each pulley assembly also includes a string pulley component fixed to the axle, and having a non-circular peripheral string groove; a cable pulley component fixed to the axle, and having a peripheral cable take-up groove; a bowstring with opposite ends connected to the first and second pulley assemblies such that, at rest condition of the bow, the peripheral string grooves are substantially occupied by wrapped bowstring; a first cable segment, extending from the entry of the peripheral cable take-up groove of the first pulley assembly to an attachment carried by the second limb; and a second cable segment, extending from the entry of the peripheral cable take-up groove of the second pulley assembly to an attachment carried by the first limb.

Abstract: A rigging structure for a compound archery bow includes first and second pulley assemblies, pivotally mounted on axles at tips of corresponding first and second limbs of a compound bow and interconnected by cables. Each pulley assembly includes a dynamic synchronizing component, decoupled from the string and cable pulley components of the assembly.
